Is set of numbers closed under natural and subtraction?
Please clarify what set you are talking about. There are several sets of numbers. Also, "closed under..." should be followed by an operation; "natural" is not an operation.
Is Natural numbers are closed under multiplication?
Yes.natural numbers are closed under multiplication.It means when the operation is done with natural numbers in multiplication the sum of two numbers is always the natural number.
Do 0 and 3 have closure for addition?
A set of numbers is considered to be closed if and only if you take any 2 numbers and perform an operation on them, the answer will belong to the same set as the original numbers, than the set is closed under that operation. If you add any 2 real numbers, your answer will be a real number, so the real number set is closed under addition. If you divide any 2 whole numbers, your answer could be a repeating decimal, which is not a whole number, and is therefore not closed. As for 0 and 3, the most specific set they belong to is the whole numbers (0, 1, 2, 3...) If you add 0 and 3, your answer is 3, which is also a whole number. Therefore, yes 0 and 3 are closed under addition
Is the set of real numbers closed under addition?
Yes. The set of real numbers is closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication. The set of real numbers without zero is closed under division.
The natural numbers are closed under division?
No, the natural numbers are not closed under division. For example, 2 and 3 are natural numbers, but 2/3 is not.
Under which operation are natural numbers closed?
Addition.
Why is zero not closed under the operation of whole numbers?
A set can be closed or not closed, not an individual element, such as zero. Furthermore, closure depends on the operation under consideration.
Are natural numbers closed under the operation of multiplicaton?
yes
Are rational numbers closed under subtraction operation?
Yes, they are.

What is a counterexample for the rational numbers are closed under the operation of taking a square root?
2 = 2/1 is rational. Sqrt(2) is not rational.
Under what operation is the set of positive rational numbers not closed?
Subtraction.
What operation are whole numbers closed under?
l think multiplication
Is Natural numbers are closed under multiplication?
Yes.natural numbers are closed under multiplication.It means when the operation is done with natural numbers in multiplication the sum of two numbers is always the natural number.
What is a set of rational numbers not closed under?
It is not closed under taking square (or other even) roots.
Is the set of all negative numbers closed under the operation of multiplication Explain why or why not?
No. For a set to be closed with respect to an operation, the result of applying the operation to any elements of the set also must be in the set. The set of negative numbers is not closed under multiplication because, for example (-1)*(-2)=2. In that example, we multiplied two numbers that were in the set (negative numbers) and the product was not in the set (it is a positive number). On the other hand, the set of all negative numbers is closed under the operation of addition because the sum of any two negative numbers is a negatoive number.
Which sets of numbers are closed under subtraction?
To be closed under an operation, when that operation is applied to two member of a set then the result must also be a member of the set. Thus the sets ℂ (Complex numbers), ℝ (Real Numbers), ℚ (Rational Numbers) and ℤ (integers) are closed under subtraction. ℤ+ (the positive integers), ℤ- (the negative integers) and ℕ (the natural numbers) are not closed under subtraction as subtraction can lead to a result which is not a member of the set.
